Filter by:The 2-year research plan will test the Extended Put It Out Project (POP-6) in a pilot randomized trial (N=168) compared to TSP-6, as well as comparing POP-6 and TSP-6 to the POP-3 and TSP-3 interventions from a previously-conducted trial. Participants will be young adults who smoke, identify as sexual or gender minorities (SGM), and use Facebook. Primary outcome will be biochemically verified 7-day abstinence from smoking at 3 and 6 months. Secondary outcomes will be a quit attempt (y/n), stage of change, and thoughts about tobacco abstinence at 3 and 6 months.
This study is about whether or not little cigars and cigarillos cause or maintain addiction, and if flavors, such as fruit, make them more addictive. The purpose of this study is to understand the addiction potential of little cigars and cigarillos compared to cigarettes in young adults who smoke both products. This study will also look at the differences between men and women. In the rest of this form, little cigars or cigarillos will be referred to as LCCs.
This project will develop and refine a computer-delivered integrated Personalized Feedback Intervention (PFI) that directly addresses smoking and anxiety sensitivity (AS). The PFI will focus on feedback about smoking behavior, AS, and adaptive coping strategies.
This is a research study to verify the same effectiveness and safety profile for the test products, nicotine 2 mg gum and nicotine 4 mg gum, as for the already approved products, Nicorette Mint 2 mg gum and Nicorette Mint 4 mg gum (reference products), in a standardized mode. This verification is done in a so-called bioequivalence study, which means that the same amount of the same active substance (nicotine), in the same dosage form, for the same route of administration, and meeting the same or comparable standards is performed. During the study visits, blood samples will be drawn to measure the level of the substance in the blood to verify that the two test products are comparable to the reference products. Tolerability of the treatments will be evaluated based on reported and observed adverse events.
The 2-year research plan will test the Put It Out Project (POP) in a pilot randomized trial (N=120) compared to TSP and two historical control conditions. Participants will be young adults who smoke, identify as sexual or gender minorities, and use Facebook. The primary outcome will be biochemically verified 7-day abstinence from smoking at 3 and 6 months. Secondary outcomes will be a quit attempt (y/n), stage of change, and thoughts about tobacco abstinence at 3 and 6 mos.
Using a 2x2 randomized factorial design, we will conduct a statewide field trial in Missouri to compare the relative and combined effects of these two strategies for augmenting an existing, evidence-based tobacco quitline program. Among 2000 low-income smokers, half will receive standard Missouri quitline services and half will receive new Specialized Quitline services targeted to this group. In each of these groups, half also will receive calls from a trained navigator to help them address unmet Basic Needs and the accompanying psychological distress that act as barriers to smoking cessation.
This research will determine whether two highly promising modifications to varenicline treatment (i.e. use of a nicotine patch adjuvant and extended 24-week duration) produce superior smoking outcomes when they are either used together or alone. Despite their promise, the proposed modifications have never been experimentally evaluated relative to standard varenicline pharmacotherapy. Thus, this innovative research will produce novel evidence regarding how best to help smokers quit, and thereby address the leading cause of preventable mortality and morbidity related to cardiovascular and pulmonary diseases.
This is a research study to verify the same effectiveness and safety profile for the test product, Nicorette Strongmint lozenge, as for an already approved product, NiQuitin® Minimint lozenge (reference product), in a standardized mode. This verification is done in a so-called bioequivalence study, which means that the same amount of the same active substance (nicotine), in the same dosage form, for the same route of administration, and meeting the same or comparable standards is performed. During the study visits, blood samples will be drawn to measure the level of the substance in the blood to verify that the two products are comparable. Tolerability of the treatments will be evaluated based on reported and observed adverse events.
This study will evaluate behavioral and psychological appeal, toxicity, and effect of e-cigarettes on smoking behavior and nicotine addiction in chronic smokers with serious mental illness (SMI) who have failed to quit smoking. A total of 240 participants will be enrolled and randomly assigned to either receive a supply of e-cigarettes for 8 weeks plus assessments (baseline & weeks 2, 4, 6, 8, 13, & 26) or assessments only. This single-blinded study will provide e-cigarettes and instructions on their safe use. Level of appeal will be inferred from carefully assessed use of e-cigarettes and reduction in combustible tobacco. Qualitative data will also be collected from participants assigned to e-cigarettes, given that unanticipated issues will almost certainly arise in connection with e-cigarette use that can only be captured within a qualitative debriefing at the conclusion of participants' time in the study.
The main objective of EUREST-PLUS is to monitor and evaluate the impact of the Tobacco Products Directive (TPD) within the context of FCTC ratification at an EU level. The investigators specific objectives, within WorkPackage 2 and Workpackage 3 are: To evaluate the psychosocial and behavioral impact of TPD implementation and FCTC implementation, through the creation of a cohort study of adult smokers in 6 European Member States (EU MS), Germany, Greece, Hungary, Poland, Romania, Spain; (total n=6000) in a pre- vs. post-TPD study design. EUREST-PLUS is funded through the European Union's Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme under grant agreement No 681109
